Harassment, Shame and Punishment

The Agenda with Steve Paikin: Harassment, Shame and Punishment

The Dalhousie male dentistry students Facebook page; the Canadian military; the Royal Military College; #FHRITP - all public incidents of sexual harassment in Canada which have led to spirited debates over root behaviours. Can sexual harassment be stopped by public shaming and/or zero tolerance? How effective are restorative justice practices, education or outright firing for such offences? Is it possible to end sexual harassment or has recent outrage made it worse? The Agenda debates these issues.
